Gardens of Prague

Wenceslas Square

Prague’s intrigue doesn’t wear off with the seasons. The city is a travelers dream, for you can visit the historical place any time of the year. European summers aren’t too bad. Although the heat may become too much to handle, it’s almost always perfect weather to take a meditative stroll through one of the many lush and decorated parks or gardens. While doing so you will definitely see first hand the clash between the Communist influence of eastern Europe to the modernization and capitalism of western Europe. Statues of communist leaders as well as old Kings or aristocrats can be found in any one of the parks.
My favorite gardens are the ones surrounding the awesome Prague Castel. A nice long walk, the gardens beauty surrounds you as you walk into lush greenery, beautiful plants, and a rose garden that will surely please your olfactory senses. The major parks and gardens you’ll want to visit are Franciscan Garden, in the heart of the New Town, Havlíčkovy Sady, Prague’s second biggest park and where you can visit the gorgeous Villa Gröbe, Letná Hill, a park with paths built for anything on wheels: skateboards, rollerblades, and bicycles, Vrtba Garden, a Baroque garden in Lesser Town decorated with flower beds and statues of ancient Roman gods.
